Ito, Natsumi

During the 1930s, a period of rampant shifts is reshaping Japan's societal structure. Mitsuko Hoshino is a prime example of such change, being the first female detective to ever exist in the country. Despite receiving back-handed compliments on a daily basis regarding her gender and profession, Mitsuko would not change her job for anything in the world and strives to be the best at the Ginza Detective Bureau.

At a cafe, Mitsuko meets a handsome young waiter named Saku Yoshida, who requests help to find the owner of a shoe he found. After handling the case, Mitsuko is shocked to find out that Saku has not only been cast off by his wealthy family, but the college student is also now employed by the bureau to be Mitsuko's assistant! While their relationship slowly blossoms, the duo is tasked with solving mysteries side by side in these ever-changing times.

When I open my eyes, I find myself in an unfamiliar car, in an unfamiliar town, in front of the on-ramp to an unfamiliar highway. Before I can process any of this, I see the fiery explosions of multiple car crashes in the distance, and without thinking, I stomp on the accelerator and race toward the scene. I soon find that I’ve driven straight into hell at full speed with no brakes, just like everyone around me...! In the midst of this insanity, I discover the corpse of a girl, and suddenly I know—I am the brilliant detective. And I must solve the mystery of her death.

For electronic investigator Echika Hieda, diving into peoples' memories via the Your Forma and hunting for evidence to solve the toughest crimes is all part of a day's work. The problem is, she's so good at what she does that her assistants literally fry their brains trying to keep up with her. After putting one too many aides in the hospital, the top brass finally furnish Echika with a partner on her level, a brilliant yet cheeky android named Harold Lucraft. Does this unlikely duo have what it takes to resolve their mutual suspicions and avert a deadly technological infection from sweeping across the globe before it's too late?
